The quay has gone from this:
The lower hand rail is now visible in the cleft of rock to the left and the flight of steps washed away. So, revert to plan B. Unfortunately there are few access points to the island but one, just happens, to be around the corner.
Jean has already implied that she can off-load us here but it is a bit more weather dependent and we should make plans for at least a little paddle (if required). So, this year's ringing will be undertaken using plan B. For those going please plan accordingly.
